CNF55 Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 Wow, just stumbled on to this one. I met Karl when we were caught in the start-up of this mess on Friday afternoon in Rangnam. Shared a beer and then made a dash to Soi 14. I do hope he is alright. Let me know if you have any up-date. We know that he was ok up till Thursday. We're still looking for him. I thought you said that he's been missing since Sunday? He was definitely okay on Friday afternoon (around 5:30 pm) when we walked home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmiethefish Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Hi, I've also posted this in a few other places. As well as being a fellow English teacher, Karl's from my home town and I went to high school with his sister. Unfortunately, I'm in Phnom Penh so can't go looking. I hope he turns up OK.

BigWheelMan Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 (edited) The news of missing Karl Warhurst is all over the Internet. Just Google in his name. Hope he hasn`t become involved with the wrong crowd and is OK. Here is his photo if anybody sees him. He has quite a distinguished look and should be easy to recognise: Edited May 23, 2010 by BigWheelMan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Changian Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 If he still hasn't shown up . . . there was an unidentified body of (probably) a foreigner pulled out of the sea on Koh Chang at 7pm on 22 May. Been in the water for a few days apparently so not easy to identify. At first sight there is no obvious cause of death other than drowning. And no-one has reported any missing persons to the local police here. Photo here if you want to take a look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markokang Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Karl has been found alive although a little distraught due to possible head injuries. The NZ embassy is working with the Thai police to arrange his safe return to New Zealand. Thank you to all those who have helped in locate him.
